The Neighborhood Meeting Place

What's the difference between a bar and a friendly hang-out place? Visit the Violet Crown Social Club and find out. Their plush red booths - and the outdoor patio with benches and tables - create the right atmosphere for enjoying their cheap drinks (with generous pours), tap craft beers from an ever-changing selection, orange whips and other frozen drinks, while you listen to tunes on the CD jukebox. Or, enjoy movies and sports on the televisions behind the bar.

The Via313 trailer out front offers Detroit-style pizza; place your order and it'll be delivered to your table! Relax and enjoy. The patio is dog-friendly, except for Fridays and Saturdays.
